Tonight - because my family were here I did a casserole with lots of vegetables and good beef cooked in beer and stock. Even the picky eater demolished it and it was obviously a success. However I found the cutting up of the meat and endless vegetables was quite painful for my hands so I'm afraid now I am only an occasional good cook.

Hmmm,I really don't think myself lacking in experience after all these years! Especially when I make nearly everything from scratch! Wonder just what they're looking for?I'll have to let my husband know that he has an apprentice for a cook!:-)

I'm a learning cook, too. I think that's how it's categorizing those of us who CAN, but don't ENJOY cooking. :-) Me, I cook just fine, but I cook because I must. When I'm on my own, I'll eat a LOT of soup, salads, and sandwiches!

hehe. And wouldn't you know how much I love to cook? My youngest daughter has four names. Her first middle name is Nigella.

You're a top cook, but you weren't born that way. It's taken a lot of practice, a lot of experimenting, and a lot of learning.It's likely that you have what it takes to be a top chef, should you have the desire..

I am a creative cook. I guess my parents making me learn to cook when I was 7 helped. They got tired of making two meals since I was so picky. And I've uh.. had a few very memorable flops.

"Your cooking is unusual, inspired, and definitely one of a kind. People love your unique style, but you've had your share of kitchen flops.You have the makings of a cult chef. You may not cook at the Four Seasons, but you could have your own little funky cafe in San Francisco!"

Hello Ann ~~ Thanks for your comments .I used to always buy my grandkids water pistols, because our Christman is ehe middle of Summer so water and pools etc are the go.

"You've got the makings of an excellent cook, and the desire to be one.But right now, you're just lacking the experience. You couldn't be a top chef yet, but you could be an apprentice." Hmmmm, I've been cooking and baking since I was 9 years old so this is a bit off! lol
